3 men order 3 pizzas for $30. they pay the delivery man and he leaves. the delivery man realizes the pizzas should have been $25 and decides to give the money back. but the men didnt tip him so he keeps $2 for himself. he gives each man $1 back.
3 x 10 = 30 each mans payment
30 - 5 = 25 $5over charged
25 + 2 = 27 tip delivery man kept
27 + 3 = 20 $3 given back to 3 men
so now each man has paid $9 for each pizza.
9 x 3 = 27
27 + 2 = 29 total plus "tip"
where did the extra dollar go?

the dollar didn't go anywhere
$25 pizzas
+
$2 tip
+
$3 the guys got back
=
$30 in total
if you do the $9 from each man way...
$9 x 3 = $27
$27 + $3 = $30 because of the money they got back
the tip is irrelevant

The math is wrong.
3x10=30
30-5=25
25+2=28 (delivery man still has tip)
9x3=27
NOW add the 3 back in and get 30.
In the first equation, you added the 2 twice, instead of adding 2 and adding 3.

25+3+2=30
25=amount paid
3=amount paid back
2=amount kept
